My commute to work from where I’m currently residing is anywhere from 45-60 minutes, and as much as I hate crawling along the Belt Parkway, the extra time in the car has allowed me to keep up with new music much better than I thought I would after the twins were born. Afternoon rides are reserved for classics I can unwind with (and shout along to) after dealing with 13 and 14 year old brats all day, but I usually spend the morning ride listening to something new - it’s funny how in tune I can be to music in the delirious state I’m usually in after 5 or 6 hours of broken sleep. The above songs have all have made those rides not only more tolerable, but somehow even enjoyable - the best new songs I‘ve heard over the past 30 days or so. Or at least the best songs that are available as free and legal downloads. I’ve posted 8 or 9 of them previously, so you can follow those links to find out more information. For the tracks which I haven’t posted before, the links are there for the artist’s homepages. Enjoy.
